Say it with…Background Stamps
Hi all,
The challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps this week is to use background stamps. Hope you can join in the fun and we look forward to seeing where your imagination takes you!
I used BBD#7 to create a colourful stripy background. The buttons were a lovely gift from my fellow DT Jess. I wanted the sentiment to be a little bolder – so I stamped it once and then stamped it again a fraction to the side, then filled the gaps in with a black felt pen.
I am entering this into the current Jay Gee Nook’s Challenge #16 where the inspiration was this photo. I was drawn to the colours and the buttons!
Supplies:
Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps BBD#7 stamp set, AnnaBelle Stamps Fanciful Flowers stamp set
Ink: Versacolor ink – Camellia, Turquoise, Bamboo, Cyan, Orange, Yellow
Card: AnnaBelle Stamps smooth white card
Other Supplies: AnnaBelle Stamps 0.8mm Natural Hemp twine, foam dimensionals, Glossy Accents (to adhere buttons), American Crafts buttons, black felt pen
Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the DT have created. The Belles’ links are on my side bar.

This is just incredible Marion! Love the bright colors!
Fabulous card Marion! It is amazing how splitting that panel just a little adds so much more to the card. Thanks so much for joining us at Jay Gee’s 🙂
I really LOVE your choice of stamp set and bright multi coloured design… great minds do really think alike! This card is gorgeous Marion, those buttons are the perfect addition!
Beautiful design work and card.
Love the colours in your card Marion and how you’ve used the background stamp! Beautiful!!
So funny! I was just over to Therese’s blog and saw how you both made similar cards without knowing. I agree with Therese the buttons are a great addition!
Ooooo! What a stunning card, Marion! The bright colors are so cheerful and the buttons are great! Your idea of stamping next to the sentiment and filling it in is a great idea!
This little set got a good workout this week!!!! Love your bright CAS card Marion and those buttons are the perfect way to finish.
So funny how the three of us did something kinda similar this week!! Mine is much less colorful of course 🙂 love the buttons btw – hehe!
Oh and have to say that double stamping for the sentiment worked so well! Gotta try that one 🙂
